BSNLEU organises powerful protest action against the high handedness of the BSNL Management.

In a swift move, BSNLEU organised day long black badge wearing and lunch hour demonstrations throughout the country today. This agitation is against the steps being taken by the Government and the Management to retrench 35,000 employees through VRS, increasing the working hours up to 12 hrs. per day and against the threatenings to dismiss employees under Rule FR 56(J). Even though, the call was given at a very short notice, there is excellent response for the call in all the circles. BSNLEU has told the Government and the Management that they cannot take the employees for a ride. The CHQ heartily congratulates all the circle and district unions, which sprang into action at a very short notice.
